Times Square carbomb arrestee kicked back to Ye Olde Pakland
2011-05-22
By the news agency that dare not be named
ICE says a Pak man arrested in Massachusetts during the investigation into last year's failed New York Times Square car bombing has been deported to Pakland.
hopefully he got a beating first?
Aftab Ali Khan, illegally living in Watertown, was accompanied by ICE copperes on a flight from Logan International Airport to Islamabad on Sunday. Khan, his uncle, and a man in Maine were arrested on immigration violations nearly two weeks after the failed bombing attempt on May 1, 2010.
Ship the whole family back, eh?
Khan pleaded guilty to immigration and illegal money-transfer charges. He did not face terrorism-related charges.

Federal authorities say Ali "unwittingly" supplied $4,900 to Faisal Shahzad, of Bridgeport, Conn., who was convicted in the attempted bombing.
what did he say the money was for? Just handing over boodle to "some guy I didn't know"?
Ali came to the U.S. in August 2009 on a 90-day visa to get married.
Hope that didn't happen. I'd see how many others his "fiancee" has brought over?

#7  anon1: my standards for terrorism suspects include beatings - if useful. Note that I wasn't picked up in Saturday's Rapture. If that is the tipping point - I'll work with it

#6  If Muslim terrorism is to be brought under control, biometrics will be the key. Even those techniques will be difficult due to their incessant spawning.

#5  No doubt they got DNA, fingerprints, and other biometric data, and thoroughly investigated his phone and computer. Most important seems to have become not the people themselves but mapping their contacts to find those maneuvering the pieces behind the scenes. How many drone attacks in Waziristan and nearby will result from this, I wonder...

#4  know you feel like beating them but it's important we keep our standards high

all can be solved by profiling and watching muslims.

#3  It wasn't the bomber wannabe who got deported, it was people associated with him "unwittingly".

#1  I, I..., I don't know what to say.
Who was the prosecutor?
Wasn't anything said about attempted murder?
